[Elecraft] CW mode question

2012-04-06 Thread Bill Miller
I just acquired a K-3 and have spent an hour  getting somewhat familiar. I tuned 20 M and heard a nice DX station at about S-6 using the USB filter setting. I realized I can only transmit CW with the mode set to CW. When I made the change however, I could not hear either the DX guy (gal?) nor

Maybe the cause is the following: listening on 14050 to a cw signal with pitch 1kHz in USB, then the cw-signal is on 14051. Switching the K3 to CW with untouched dial, then you listen on 14050. Is that the reason? Arie PA3A Op 6-4-2012 17:25, Bill Miller schreef: I just acquired a K-3 and

Someone said: Personally I send as slow as 18wpm and as high as 35 wpm . . ., and enjoy the fast switching of the new CW+ mode. In my opinion THIS is what QSK SHOULD sound like.. I agree. I prefer CW+ to CW for use at 18-25 wpm with a paddle. CW+ is close to perfect QSK; I believe I can hear

YOU ARE RIGHT I MUST READ MORE CAREFUL That's the beauty of searching the .pdf version of the manual, instead of reading the paper version. In this case, about the fifth click on AGC shows the desired info. Dave Hachadorian, K6LL Big Bear Lake, CA .
